    Click to expand in new window
  3. Review the following VRRP configuration data to assess if a new VRRP configuration is required or if an existing VRRP configuration requires modification or removal:

    Virtual Router ID

    Lists a numerical index (1 - 254) used to differentiate VRRP configurations. The index is assigned when a VRRP configuration is initially defined. This ID identifies the virtual router a packet is reporting status for.

    Description

    Displays a description assigned to the VRRP configuration when it was either created or modified. The description is implemented to provide additional differentiation beyond the numerical virtual router ID.

    Virtual IP Addresses

    Lists the virtual interface IP address used as the redundant gateway address for the virtual route.

    Interface

    Displays the device interfaces selected to supply VRRP redundancy failover support.

    Priority

    Lists a numerical value (1 - 254) used for the virtual router master election process. The higher the numerical value, the higher the priority in the election process.

  4. Select Add button to create a new VRRP configuration. Select Edit to update an existing VRRP configuration.
